Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.)

Sen. Dianne Feinstein believes sexual harassment allegations that have rocked the country could lead to a wave of women entering politics.

“I predict based on what I see out there that we are going to have another Year of the Woman,” Feinstein said on Saturday, according to the Los Angeles Times.

The California Democrat sees 2018 as a possible follow up to 1992, the year that she and several other women were first elected to Congress.

Feinstein, 84, told the women’s caucus at the California Democratic Party executive board meeting she was overwhelmed by the women who have spoken publicly about sexual assault and misconduct recently after accusations against Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein.

“I’ve watched mesmerized at the lack of fear of every woman that has come forward,” she said.

Feinstein, facing a primary challenger next year, touted her experience and seniority in the Senate in fighting for those who have been sexually harassed or assaulted.

“What it means is that we have an opportunity to really turn this next year into a year of change affecting women,” she said.
